The so-called slum he went to is not Klong Toei. This one is at Pracha Songkhro/Bangkok Metropolitan Council/Bangkok Youth Center (Thai-Japan), or what's the local usually call แฟลตดินแดง or Din Daeng Flat. I used to live just across the street of these packs of flat since birth. Now moved out just a bit further and near the MRT station. The outer space or the nearby market is safe like other normal parts of Bangkok. Up inside the building, idk. Tbh, as I lived near there for ten years. I never enter those building even once.

fuck dude. 14 years ago i was skating so much. i had so much fun with friends. but at some point, we all stopped it fore some reason. now i am 29 years old with multiple sclerosis and i thought, i will never give it a shot again. but now with videos like this on youtube, i have a deep burning longing to skate again. just need to fix my old ass board and i will skate again. i am very excited, happy and looking forward to it. thank you skatenomad, that u contribute to these videos. i just can't wait to skate again! :D

This vide literally shows more of ''how it is'' than any travel vlogger does. As all we see are beaches and temples. Not this. Showing that beyond the stereotypes, propaganda, and what people think they know, because of what they are able to see (and many never care to look beyond that). It shows yet again society is society anywhere. Humans are humans anywhere. Just as you said; Beside languages, cultures, and the things that make it look we are so different from one another. Behind all that is - something I know many don't like are true - humans no matter where, have far more in-common that not. Awesome vid man, btw!

Dude thank you so much! I like to show my skate traveller perpective which is different than most people. This is the core concept of my channel. I’m super glad you appreciated it. Let’s show what is it for what it is 🙏

As a capital city goes Bangkok is the safest I have ever known. I have been out drunk barely walking down the wrong streets and seen some very dangerous-looking people to be greeted and welcomed by them to stop and have another drink then call me a taxi to return me safely back to my hotel. I have never seen anyone beaten up or robbed, but go to London or New York you'll find the complete opposite.
